[Mr_Green]

Why is it that you have to cure your buds for about 2 weeks to a month and how do you do this? i heard of water curing with jars... so whats wrong with just drying them out and smoking the buds? Also with method should i use to cure of buds? Thank You

If you don't cure you get a nasty chloryphyll taste like eatting grass .

Cure by using a glass transparent cookie jar and open the lid for a couple of hours every few days or when it mists up.

so do i put water as well like how many other growers do or do i jus put the buds in the jar and leave it closed....

I like the old fashion way....put your buds in a brown paper bag fold the top over so no light gets in,but not so tight that it holds air,then toss it in the bottom of your closet for a cpl weeks.

the first thing that attracted me to good home grown was the green distinct smell/taste. fresh compaired to comercial. now i still smoke it if it isnt completely cured (while im waiting that is)but honestly its the best if you cure it right. i do the paper sack glass jar method. now you' ll want to know why it smells like hay for a little while? i did.

what is the paper sack glass jar method....
